"Life for expats and digital nomads in Playa Hermosa is often described as a tropical paradise. The small beach town offers a laid-back lifestyle with warm weather year-round, making it an ideal location for those who enjoy outdoor activities such as surfing, fishing, and hiking. The local community is welcoming and friendly, with a mix of locals and expats from around the world. Despite its small size, Playa Hermosa has a good range of amenities including restaurants, bars, and grocery stores. The cost of living is relatively low compared to many Western countries, although it is higher than in some other parts of Costa Rica. For digital nomads, the internet connectivity is generally reliable, and there are several coworking spaces available. However, it's worth noting that the pace of life is slower, and services may not always run on time. Learning Spanish can enhance the experience, as not everyone speaks English. However, the expat community is large enough that it's possible to get by with just English. Overall, life in Playa Hermosa offers a unique blend of natural beauty, relaxed living, and a vibrant, multicultural community," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Playa Hermosa, Costa Rica.
